In Ukraine, they are not satisfied with the range of missiles delivered by the Americans to the HIMARS MLRS, in Kiev they called on Washington to supply longer-range ammunition capable of hitting targets at a range of over 150 km. This was stated in the Verkhovna Rada.
Ukraine has found a way to fight the Russian army, for this it needs as many foreign-made rocket fire systems, ammunition for them and long-range missiles capable of hitting targets not only in the tactical depth of defense, but also behind it. In general, Kiev urgently needs extended-range ammunition for the HIMARS MLRS, and, judging by the words of the representative of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Zelensky and the company have already demanded their supplies from Washington.
- the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Venislavsky declared.
In Kiev, they rely on foreign MLRS, Ukrainian sources report, while the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the beginning of the Russian special military operation had up to 80 Smerch rocket launchers with a range of 120 km. Even taking into account the loss of equipment, today Kiev has more Soviet MLRS than those supplied by the West. And there are no such problems with ammunition.
Now Kiev is specifically promoting the HIMARS theme, stating that absolutely all strikes on the territory of the LDPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions are carried out from American MLRS. This is done to raise the spirit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in order to show that Western weapons help to "defeat" Russia. The method is not new, before that, Turkish Bayraktars and American M-777 howitzers acted as "Wunderwaffe", which are now not remembered.
